Super shots there Homer, the first one is pic of the day by far,its a sign,a future warning perhaps for those of us who collect crane models,as bigger and better models are coming we will have to break holes in our roofs  (incidently was this house for sale??) I bet for a moment you believed me when I joked the 112 was back in the yard in Dublin lol Glad you guys got to see her in the flesh as who knows when she will be back or where she will be when this job finishes Maybe a period of time spent apart for eachother might be good
Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"? ... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

Graham, I left those to Darren, he's also our designated dirt guy  My mind was too preoccupied with other stuff as you can imagine! There was an old krupp crane there too, it looked like an old G O'Brien crane, I think gus got a pic of it he might be able to post it.

Yeah G O'Brien I think is a Krupp/Grove fan,seems to have or atleast had quite a few

David they were taken in two different locations near Newcastle West. The 1500 was in a place called Ardagh and the 11200 was at the opposite side of Newcastle West in an area called Broadford.
